Chapter 76
I smiled unconsciously as I spread my fingers, and the man who had given the newspaper stuttered.
“I guess you like your husband a lot.”
“Hngg, but my husband wants a divorce.”
“Heuk.”
“So, that’s why you left ho?”
“You don’t have sons?”
I sniffed at the man with the greasy face.
A few seconds ago, he was shoving his face towards , but now he’s a little farther away.
I took a sip of cocoa and replied moderately.
“Sons. Co to think of it, my first son really hates . He’s not my real son.”
He’s not even Aedis’s biological son.
“My first son asked to marry him. He was going to kill because I refused.”
“Amazing.”
“What… What’s the age difference?”
“The second son is embarrassed because he thinks it’s all his fault that I’ve beco like this.”
Regen is misunderstanding why I am sick.
He thought that he had awakened Pymon, so I had no choice but to sign a contract.
He didn’t even listen when I explained that he wasn’t at fault, so I was really upset.
“…You have a second one?”
“Whoooaa!”
“What is this soybean flour* family?!”
*soybean flour family: divided, no bond, no order among the family mbers
“In the first place, these are the circumstances of your family?”
In a mont, they had forgotten what they were doing and listened carefully to my family’s relationship like it was the opening stage.
“So?”
“What are you going to do now?”
“I don’t know either.”
The is for paid users.
The greasy-faced man grunted to himself and smashed the table with his fists.
“Miss, no. If you’re married, you’re not a Miss. Anyway, I’m sorry for you! What’s your husband’s na! Where is he now? I’ll kick his a**!”
His na is Aedis, and he’s over there.
“Kaak! Kaak!”
Raven flapped his cute wings and flew to my shoulder and sat down.
Aedis furrowed his brows, looking displeased with Raven, who flew in quickly the mont he opened the door.
“Maevia, it’s past al ti. What are you doing here…”
“Are you the husband?”
The greasy faced man got up and pointed at Aedis.
It was as if he had used up all of his courage for the rest of his life.
“Co on! Fight fair and square for the Miss. Aghhh!”
Aedis ca up to , throwing the greasy faced bastard and his gang out of the store as if he were chasing a fly.
He reached out and stopped.
“Why did it get worse? Did sothing happen?”
The blue eyes glead brightly. One must be really determined to so much as wave his hand with an unpleasant look on his face.
“Nothing much apart from Shaula bringing and leaving here?”
I felt relieved, so I used respectful words as usual, but on the contrary, Aedis narrowed his eyes.
I smiled at him and waved my hand.
“Aedis, I can’t get up.”
“I would think so.”
“Hold .”
Aedis picked up with one arm and threw a pouch of money at the shopkeeper.
My tension lted like snow in the perfectly familiar arms.
However, the gang that had been kicked out of the store were nowhere to be seen.
How far did they fly…
“Kyaak?”
Raven followed and tilted his head.
Since we were not going to see each other again anyway, I turned off my mind and focused on Aedis.
“Thank you for coming to pick up. I was scared.”
“You were scared?”
Not because of those guys.
“As Shaula said, you really went out of the castle, so I was afraid you wouldn’t co back.”
“…”
“Co to think of it, once you’re gone, there’s no way for to find you.”
“There is no way I can disappear.”
Said the husband, who had been missing from morning until the sun went down.
“I can’t believe it. I got married because soone said he didn’t want to get a divorce. That turned out to be a lie.”
“……That’s”
“That’s?”
Aedis looked at with a face that showed his complicated feelings, and his eyes widened.
Huh?
“What did you put on my face?”
Sothing hot dribbled from my nose.
I hurriedly covered it with my handkerchief, and checked to see if it was blood.
It’s gotten really bad.
Aedis lifted into his arms.
I grabbed his arm.
“Don’t go to the castle.”
“However-”
“Anyway, I’m in a ss right now. What I need the most is ti alone with you.”
“…”
“If you don’t listen, I won’t get a divorce…”
As my nose bled, my energy seed to drain away as well, so there was no strength in my voice.
Aedis’s arms embraced , giving strength.
“Maevia, I wonder what’s going to happen to my head because of you.”
Am I a pain in the butt? But you’re happy, right?
***
Aedis accepted my choice and took to a place that wasn’t Cyclan Castle.
It was a simple house with only the most essential furniture. A bed, desk, and wardrobe.
There were no paintings, and it seed that it did not have any daily necessities at all.
There were hardly any traces of human life.
Nevertheless, the temperature magic worked, and the house was warm, so I took off my coat and fur hat.
Where are we? Aedis’s haven?
After looking around slightly, the structure of the house consisted of a living room on the first floor, and a study and a bedroom on the second floor.
There were less than ten books in the library.
After exploring the interior, I looked out the window and saw a pure white snow field.
Half of it was ice, and the other half was snow.
In a world covered in ice, the crystal gateway shone.
“Wow, is it a crystal gate?”
This place was in between the land of humans and the realm of the beasts.
Beyond that gate, the quarry I bought, Tolka, would have an incomparable number of demonic beasts encamped.
Perhaps the place where this house was built was also a no-go zone.
I checked the window on the other side, but there were no other buildings.
There was only this little house on the white frozen ground. From the outside, it must be a bit of a lonely sight.
“How did you build a house here?”
While wiping my face with a cloth dampened in warm water, Aedis said, “Strictly speaking, it doesn’t belong to . It was Andrei’s annex.”
Andrei…?
“The predecessor Grand Duke?”
Oh, my nosebleed has stopped.
“Before he died, he left the key and told not to co alone. Am I not isolated enough from the castle?”
“You have a good friend.”
Aedis sighed and laughed.
“I’m also the person who made the marriage contract.”
He lifted up and placed on the high window.
Thanks to this, my eye level was slightly higher than Aedis’s, who had folded his upper body.
It looked like his thick eyelashes were trembling.
“Maevia.”
I wish he would call Eve.
I rolled my eyes and nodded lightly.
Aedis hesitated for a mont, as if contemplating how to start his sentence.
“I can’t tell my wife everything. It also wouldn’t be a good choice for to be alone with you in the future.”
“…”
Aedis was silent for a few seconds.
His distorted expression proved how reluctant he was to talk about this topic.
Because he really didn’t want to say it.
Because he didn’t want to reveal anything.
However, in the end, he decided that it was sothing he had to say.
“Maevia, I’m not like you.”
He said that with a voice that sounded as if he was sinking deeper into a swamp.Note: his voice is becoming softer, as if he was talking while being subrged into a swamp
“The reason why my hair and eyes are different from what you saw in your dreams is because I got a different implant.”
Different……?
“It’s not human.”
His eyes trembled. His breathing was harsh.
“The hand holding you, the eyes looking at you. Even this voice may not be mine.”
“…”
I couldn’t fully understand what he ant right now.
Aedis also knew my confusion, so he grabbed my hand and rubbed it against his cheek.
I gently stroked his face.
He seed to have cald down a bit by the action at least.
“You’re probably wondering why it’s just a guess. But I don’t know either. I don’t know where my ‘real’ body is. Even hundreds of years later. I still don’t know.”
I rembered the silver-haired boy I saw in my dream.
Unidentified bruises were exposed beneath the sleeves of the clothes.
Suspicious scars that resembled needle marks.
“Maybe only the smallest part of the brain is original.”
He squeezed my hand.
Does it hurt?
……I do not know.
“I don’t know how to treat you. You’re my wife. You chose , but I didn’t want to reveal it until I repaid the favor.”
“…”
“Even if I don’t die or grow old, I still want to be by your side as a human in nature.”
My hand that was held by Aedis turned white. There was no blood flow.
“But now that you know my secret, it’s safer for you to return to the capital. As you can see, I can’t control myself when it cos to that. Before I hurt you… Maevia?”
Ummm, I’ll have to remove my hand.
